Angel Street-- better known as Gaslight-- by Patrick Hamilton, Fells Point Corner Theatre, 2022. Lee Conderacci, Director. The play is the origin of the term "gaslighting." Using a critical intersectional feminist interpretation, the production worked to disrupt the white patriarchal focus of the original text and present a subversive counter-narrative that centered survivors, both onstage and in the audience. The direction used Elaine Aston’s guidelines (inspired by Jo Spence’s term “cultural sniping”) for feminist restaging of canonical plays to expose and critique the misogyny in Hamilton’s text, while emphasizing the journey and empowerment of the central woman character who survives a harrowing experience of domestic violence.
